Worldwide Q2 phone statistics
Updated: I switched to a note with info from Strategy Analytics that has much more details.
Total sales increase is 26% since Q2 last year.
Motorola is the most obvious highlight, with its 53% sales growth, in a large part contributed by the RAZR. It's almost become a standard phone by now.
Sony Ericsson is back on the fourth position over LG. Sony Ericsson has had big success with its Walkman phones.
Samsung lost some market share.
Nokia: share 33.3%, sales up 29%
Motorola: share 22.1%, sales up 53%!
Samsung: share 11.2%, sales up 8%
Sony Ericsson: share 6.7%, sales up 33%
LG: share 6.5%, sales up 26%
Others: share 20.3%, sales up 8%
IDC guessed in a separate note there can best case be shipped 1 billion phones this year, which would be a staggering figure.
